[Chris doesn't sound sad so much as he sounds weary. And maybe a bit drunk: he was at Ken and Mara's party.]

Been 'ere a year, or sommat like. A year an' now Penny's gone.

[The following silence is decidedly pregnant. He wants to affirm that he's sure she's in heaven, or that she'll be back for Christmas. Also, the fact that he's pretty sure he ( Read more... )

... I'm so sorry, Chris.

justcautious December 19 2010, 18:39:51 UTC

Cheers, Ken. An' same goes for your party yesterday.

bladed_siberian December 19 2010, 18:44:38 UTC

She might come back, you know.

justcautious December 19 2010, 18:47:13 UTC

Chin up, mate. The City's a piece of work that way, but it'll be alright.

voice; justcautious December 19 2010, 21:53:24 UTC

Cheers, Ginny. I reckon you're prob'ly right. Jus' takes gettin' used to.

voice; 7thborn December 19 2010, 21:55:39 UTC

It gets better, but I don't know. I've been here two years now and I'm still not used to it.

[Pause.]

Probably best, really. I don't know if I'd want to get used to it - bit of a bleak way of looking at friends, I expect, knowing they'll go home someday.

voice; justcautious December 19 2010, 22:05:55 UTC

S'unavoidable, then. I reckon that's pretty bleak too.

Sorry, I should prob'ly stop whinging.

I'm sorry to hear, Chris...

Maybe they'll be back, yeah? City's been known to be like that.

justcautious December 19 2010, 22:59:37 UTC

I dunno whether to 'ope she comes back or not. Cos it'd be 'orrible if I waited forever an' she never came, yeah?

shewashuman December 19 2010, 23:18:28 UTC

Well I s'ppose. But still...one never really knows around here, yeah?

justcautious December 20 2010, 00:11:47 UTC

Yeah, maybe not.

You'll be all right, mate.

We'll get you a drink, yeah?

justcautious December 20 2010, 01:45:43 UTC

Yeah. Could really use one.

makesfolktalky December 20 2010, 23:51:54 UTC

You ain't jus' 'avin' one. No sense if you ain't goin' t'get proper pissed.

justcautious December 21 2010, 01:35:36 UTC

I just meant in gen'ral. Course I'm 'avin' more'n one.

audio ][ adamantined December 20 2010, 03:42:48 UTC

I'm really sorry to hear that.

audio ][ justcautious December 20 2010, 03:50:29 UTC

I think anyone who knew 'er prob'ly is.

audio ][ adamantined December 20 2010, 03:54:20 UTC

I think people who didn't probably are.

audio ][ justcautious December 20 2010, 04:15:03 UTC

You're prob'ly right.
